Looking at the IPL I see an axle, 1128 080 6500, but I see no bushing. Short of tearing the housing apart is there anyway to determine if something is worn that would cause the eccentric run out?

Funny you mention the Marvel Mystery Oil as I did pour some in the plug hole last night and started it this morning. You say to leave it set for a couple of days so I will try that again and see what happens. If the Mystery Oil goes to the bottom end how would I clear it? I also have an 028...

First of all thanks to all who have replied to my thread. Unfortunate my saw does not have the plug for a decom valve. I totally agree with you that age becomes a factor because birthdays have caught up with me also. I don't think that is the problem though because even with it on the ground and...

I pulled the flywheel and the key and the slot are ok. The cylinder looks great and the top of the piston has very little carbon build up. The exhaust manifold is pretty free of carbon. I don't understand why this has started to become such a beast to pull the starter cord. I can pull it by...

I have been using Red Armour for a year or two. Wonder what it would do if I just put some on top of the piston? I will check the flywheel key when it quits raining.

036 Stihl chainsaw bought new years ago. Lately it has become a beast to start. I used to be able to drop start it. But now it will yank the cord out of your when you try to start it. The only way now that I can start it is to place it on the ground with my foot on the handle to hold it down...

Thanks for the replies on this post. Writing this for an update. This blower belonged to a friend and he told me to go with the aftermarket carb. The kit was actually $3.00 more than the aftermarket carb. I purchased a Motoall carb for $12 & change. This thing came with some extras, air filter...

I have a Troy Bilt TB4HB EC leaf blower with a Walbro WYLA 1, (MTD 753 05908), carb. I know aftermarket carbs are hit or miss but does anyone have any ideas for one for this blower? I've heard some have had good results with Hipa but they do not have a replacement for that carb. I may try to...

What type of lube & how do you check & add lube to the tranny????

I think what happened was the valve was laying in a position below the gas tank which allowed gas to fill the hose which stopped the vent from allowing flow of air to the tank. I moved the vent to a position above the tank. We' ll see what happens when I use it again.

I bought a used Mantis Tiller and got it running with a little TLC. I used it this morning in my garden and it kept acting like it was running out of gas. This thing has an external breather connected to a hose from the tank. I removed the breather and it ran ok. I replaced it with an...

Forgot to state it is a Hydro Gear transaxle

Just bought a SLT Cub Cadet with a 314-0610 transaxle. Does anybody know how it compares to a Tuff Torq K46?

Thanks for the reply but I don't understand what you are telling me.

I am looking for an iptv subscription like the Mars Box I am using that has a ton of VOD & TV stations. The box is around $300 & the subscriptions from providers is much cheaper per month. I would like to know if anyone has a subscription to one of these providers.
